Happiest Place On Earth

I'm not sure I'll ever get tired of this place.

Deep Pit

If you plant children, will they grow?

Thanksgiving

Thanksgiving was a lot of fun this year. I was too busy having fun that I only managed to take two pictures the entire weekend.

Look at those things

She's like a snuffleupagus.

Oh Dear!

Blynn did all of this makeup art herself. I'm sure you would like her to do your makeup soon.

My attempt at making us cultured

My mom and I took Blynn to the theater performance of Beauty and the Beast.

It was so much fun.

She was completely bedecked.

And look at this adorable hair clip that my friend makes. Aren't these amazing?

It was a great night and I can't believe that Blynn stayed awake through the whole thing. It was a late night. I can't remember the last time I was up at 11:30 on purpose. Gaston and Lumiere were my favorite. I got misty eyed at the end when we were all standing during the final bows. I was just so happy that I could do that with Blynn. I'm so sappy!

The California Raisins

We went to the school as the California Raisins to promote the field trip. We had such a fun time laughing at ourselves and the kids were having a great time too. But, just a note, it is very hot in a trash bag.

Field Trip

In 1986, my sister and I were in a combined 5th/6th combo class and we had a field trip out to my grandparents ranch. This is our class back then. You'll see this trailer again.

In October we had Luke, Blynn and Sam's classes out for that same field trip.

Rusty and Papa waiting for the bus to arrive. (There's the trailer)

Blynn was so excited to ride the bus home.

We started by gathering in prayer and we ended this way too!

They went on a tractor/trailer ride, pulled up some raisins on trays, saw them shaking raisins, watched them shake some walnut trees (that was their favorite), and ate lunch.

And then, after the bus left, and we were left behind to clean up; we had a dance party on the driveway (which is where we have all our dances) to "I Heard it Through the Grapevine".

Soon, I'll show you what we did when we went to the school to get the kids excited about coming out to the ranch. And this is Luke's reaction when we were in his class. He was laughing so hard that he was crying. You may too, so brace yourself.

Halloween 2010

Alvin, Theodore, Simon and.......Britney (the chippette not Spears)!

She's Sea Worthy

This is so exciting and it turned out to be so much fun.

Who's that handsome guy?

Or that one?
